Plumbing
Connecting the External Drain
Only a qualified plumber complying with all local codes and requirements
can install the drain at the site. You are responsible for connecting the
machine to the drain.
The following requirements must be met:
Drain accommodating a 3/4” (1.9cm) ID drain hose
Drain must be located within five feet (1.5 meters) of machine
The minimum rate of fall required is one inch (2.54cm) per foot, and the
drain hose must have a continuous rate of fall. Ensure the drain hose is
connected to the machine drain port.
If the drain has any low spots or any horizontal runs as it travels from the
machine to the drain, water and other waste from the machine will back
up and cause the drain hose and/or the drain tray to clog.
NOTE: When water and drain lines are connected, check for leaks.
Water Supply
To ensure proper operation of the machine, the following requirements
must be met:
Cold water source with a shut-off valve and 1/4" or 3/8” tube
fitting
Water pressure: minimum 30psi; maximum 100psi
Water source must be located within five feet (1.5 meters) of
machine
All machines ship with a Scalex water treatment system
Prior to connecting the water filter to the machine, flush the water
filtration system with 2 gallons (8 liters) of water.
